4.00 Credits
This course concentrates on developing communicative skills to enable the learners to engage in meaningful verbal interactions with other Swahili speakers. In order to achieve this goal, most lessons are task-based, both pedagogic and real-life tasks. Activities such as role-play, creating sample materials, discussion, story telling, describing scenes, and studying authentic cultural objects are used. Reading and writing passages are carried out as would be in a Kiswahili-speaking community. Prerequisite: LCTL 102, or permission of the instructor.

3.00 Credits
F and S. An introduction to the nature and variety of mathematics results and methods, mathematics models and their applications, and to the interaction between mathematics and culture. Not open to mathematics and natural science majors.
-
4.00 Credits
F. A course in elementary functions to prepare students for the calculus sequence. Topics include the properties of the real number system, inequalities and absolute values, functions and their graphs, solutions of equations, polynomial functions, trigonometric functions, exponential, and logarithm functions. Prerequisite: Three years of college preparatory mathematics (excluding statistics courses)
-
4.00 Credits
F and S. Functions, limits, and derivatives. Applications of derivatives to maximum-minimum problems, exponential and logarithmic functions, integrals, and functions of several variables. Not open to those who have completed Mathematics 161. Prerequisite: Mathematics 143 or permission of instructor.
-
4.00 Credits
F and S. An introduction to the concepts and methods of probability and statistics. The course is designed for students interested in the application of probability and statistics in business, economics, and the social and life sciences. Topics include descriptive statistics, probability theory, random variables and probability distributions, sampling distributions, point and interval estimation, hypothesis testing, analysis of variance, and correlation and regression.
-
4.00 Credits
F. An introduction to a number of topics in discrete mathematics that are particularly useful for work in computer science, including propositional logic, sets, functions, counting techniques, models of computation and graph theory. Applications in computer science. Prerequisite: Computer Science 108 or permission of the instructor.
-
4.00 Credits
F. Mathematics 159 and 160 together serve as an alternative to Mathematics 161 for students who have completed four years of high school mathematics but who are not ready for calculus. Placement in Mathematics 159 or 161 is determined by a calculus readiness test that is administered to incoming first-year students during orientation. Topics include functions and their graphs, polynomial functions, trigonometric functions, exponential and logarithmic functions, limits, and derivatives. Prerequisite: Four years of college preparatory mathematics (excluding statistics courses)
-
3.00 Credits
I. A continuation of Mathematics 159. Topics include derivatives, applications of derivatives, integrals, and applications of integrals. Historical and philosophical aspects of calculus are integrated with the development of the mathematical ideas, providing a sense of the context in which calculus was developed. Prerequisite: Mathematics 159.

Historical and philosophical aspects of calculus are integrated with the development of the mathematical ideas, providing a sense of the context in which calculus was developed. Prerequisite: Either four years of college preparatory mathematics (excluding statistics courses) or Mathematics 110. A calculus readiness test is administered by the department during orientation and some students may be placed in Mathematics 159 on the basis of that test.
